It looks like the glass bead composition is "pitted" or patinad... due to what the glass was mixed with,etc....typical drawn glass bead ,nice light Robbins egg blue, a little lighter than the French. So no copper in the cobalt....prob not northeast I'd say....southeast or mississippian or west.....but they did trade so anything is possible

Second look ,those could be air bubbles in the glass when it was made
